Sandercock made Dobson into a better player by getting him to run more with the ball attacking the line and hitting the gaps.Dobson would break the line several times in a game.
Miller has a bit of pace and should be doing the same and working on his kicking game,but we don't have a coach who brings the best out of players.
Ben Crooks is just one who is going backwards under Radford

Dobson had a running game from day one, scored a hattrick on his debut running the line under Morgan, problem with him was clubs closed him down quickly as its obvious the ball was going to him.

He is more likely to go to KR to replace Hodgson

Tis' true that Hodgson no doubt will be leaving end of the season (3rd and final year).
I'd be a tad disappointed if we signed Pelissier as a replacement winger though.

Me too, we'd need a hooker.

Fair point, and I guess we have to call it at some point. But others have been given time, so why shouldn't they? It's a fine balance, but there are people more qualified than me to make that decision.

If it weren't such a critical position and if it weren't both of the halfs I'd agree but we just can't pin the hopes of the club on 2 players who probably have a low probability of becoming what we need in the near future

Rankin has had a handful of games in the FC shirt, having arrived at the end of last year. Miller only arrived mid season last year and has played little more games than Rankin. Neither have had a prolongued period in the side and have had about 6 games to build up a partnership. On the odd occassion, when they have played together behind a pack going forward, both players looked good with ball in hand and have both attacked the line, kicked well and scored tries. I've seen enough to suggest the partnership will flourish. Aussie halves usually take a season to settle. I appreciate your concerns regards this season but by hell you don't half belabour the fact. Radford is going nowhere and I sincerely hope he succeeds along with all of our young upcoming players. The constant sniping at him and the players and for heavens sake, critisism of Adam Pearson for daring to take over and want to do well, it could only be, HULL FC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But who do we have at this moment in time that could play instead of them? We aren't going to be going out and sign another half this season so do we go with the Horne and Heremeia partnership again? I'd rather we gave Miller and Rankin time to develop and create a partnership rather than resort to that option again.

Is this his replacement ??

Wigan Warriors have signed forward Taulima Tautai from Wakefield Trinity Wildcats.

Tautai will join the Warriors at the end of the current season on a three-year contract.
